Hello list,
I need to distribute a patch, which has to be programmed in Pd Vanilla but with some external libraries. Since the patch will be downloaded by unexperienced persons, it would be good that the externals would be automatically installed by deken. I was looking for a script feature in deken that would allow that, but didn't find any. Is there a way of doing it, or would it be complex to add to deken's features?
the "deken" cmdline utility has such a feature: $ deken install -r requirementsfile.txt
however, most people will not have the deken-cmdline utility readily available, so you may find it it of limited use.
apart from, that there's the deken repository where you can file feature requests, and look for/comment on older ones such as [84].
i don't think it is too complicated to add such a feature to the deken-plugin (in principle), but it has to be well thought-thru (as the comment by peter has shown).
